New content is coming to Killer Instinct later this year, Microsoft has just confirmed via a brief teaser trailer before its E3 2014 press conference. Killer Instinct: Season 2 is currently set to hit the Xbox One in autumn, bringing a second wave of playable characters to the original game's limited selection, possibly alongside some of the community's requested game modes and gameplay additions. A proper arcade mode is still conspicuously missing, as are the series' trademark brutal (and hilarious) Danger Move finishers.

The only confirmed new character so far is robo-armed boxer TJ Combo, seen doing battle with Fulgore in the trailer, before a final tease for a second new fighter related to the series' sinister Ultratech organisation. We'll no doubt find out who this is later on during Microsoft's conference proper, but there already are several possibilities for speculation. Eyedol? Gargus? A charged-up Fulgore 2.0? Watch this space for updates as we get more information.
